The 60 equal division divides the octave into 60 parts of exactly 20 cents each. Since 60 = 5 * 12, it belongs to the family of edos which contain 12edo, and like the other small edos of this kind, it tempers out the Pythagorean comma, 531441/524288 = |-19 12>. In the 5-limit, it tempers out both the magic comma, 3125/3072, and the amity comma, 1600000/1594323, and supplies the optimal patent val for 5-limit magic, tempering out 3125/3072. In the 7-limit it tempers out 875/864, 245/243, 225/224 and 10976/10935, and supports magic, compton and tritonic temperaments. In the 11-limit, the 60e val scores lower in badness than the patent val, and makes for an excellent tritonic tuning. It tempers out 121/120 and 441/440, whereas the patent val tempers out 100/99, 385/384 and 540/539. The tuning of 13 is superb at half a cent flat, and the 60e val also works excellently for 13-limit tritonic. As a no-fives val, it is also excellent for the 2.3.7.11.13 bleu temperament.
